    Iam Arabic lady subscriber to several British and American UA-cam channels. I learned there are American southern English or Appalachian English. Actually I love both accents American and English but England have great civilization and authenticity but USA have one of most complex cultural identities in world . Thank you for your wonderful cultural documentary channel. Happy Easter best wishes for you your family friends.

      Unfortunately the cork accent is dying out because of the ear grating mid Atlantic accent that people have cultivated since the 1970’s because they stupidly think it makes them sound more important.

    I once asked the man whom I was talking to, what part of Wales do you come from, His accent was very similar to what you would find in parts of Wales, I surprise when he got upset and said he was from Co Cork,

      West Country planters mostly came from wales as opposed to Devon , that influenced the cork accent as the settlers mixed with the natives in the 1600s

      You've gotta be kidding, the number of accents (not to mind, languages) to be heard on the streets of Cork City these days! Not by any means a bad thing either, although I acknowledge some may differ. Still, I have to admit to being a bit 'smart' (or trying to be, maybe,) and I do know what you're saying. I haven't _lived_ in Cork for over 30 years, though I do visit as often as I can, so I can't _really_ say, but I suspect you're right, that a lot of those nuances have gotten smoothed out. Seems to be the way with everything, nowadays. Ah, when I was a 'bie'... in them days, the Woodbines were only a penny a pint... ( _'ráiméish'_ ~es away interminably in background...)

    This is where the Jamaican Patois accent comes from.
    It was a mix of the West African slaves aiming to speak anglicized- Irish
    The Irish have had long historic ties to Jamaica.

    • @richiehoyt8487
      @richiehoyt8487 Рік тому +2

      I've often heard that said... perhaps there's _something_ to it, since back in Cromwellian times the British _did_ export a lot of Irish prisoners of war to either the West Indies (or Caribbean, if you prefer; mostly to Barbados though, where we got the moniker of 'Redlegs'.) Also to the Carolinas. This was as literal, _actual_ slaves, before the Atlantic slave trade really kicked into high gear, although you're not really 'allowed' to say that, nowadays. Even after Black slavery became the norm, many Irish continued to wind up in the Americas as indentured servants. The argument could be made, counterintuitive though it may be, that this was in some respects _worse_ than being a captive slave, but such a discussion is probably outside the purview of this comments section!
      It is also the case that Jamaica has its 'lost' White tribes, by which I do _not_ mean Ian Fleming types 'gone native'! [sic] Whether or not these folks have Irish, let alone Cork, ancestry though, I honestly have no idea! As for the larger question of whether Jamaican, or West Indian in general, accents have been coloured by contacts with Cork people; well it's an intriguing and romantic idea, but, while putting up my hands to having no special knowledge on the subject whatsoever, it is my feeling that, as film industry lawyers might put it, "any resemblance is entirely co~incidental".

    Who where the Cramer family from Cork? That's my grandfather's father's side DNA through a man name Ambrose Nicolas Yates (Cramer) he took up a man that wasn't his father last name which was (Yates) so my DNA & last name should be of a Cramer.
